The first artists were painters whose canvases were the rocky undergrounds in caves. From the cave paintings, an art developed that approximates the predominant art forms of East Asia. For the sake of clear delineation, Korean art groups together all works made on a surface in Korea or by a Korean artist in another country. This clear formulation draws a line to Japanese and Chinese art development, which are as similar as they are different to art development in Korea. Splinters of both art schools are present in Korean art, and yet painting has developed separately from influences on society and religion. The Japanese school is present through the art of everyday objects. Chinese art can be seen in ink painting, landscape depictions and portrait painting.
An important concept in Korean painting is the strict separation of monochromatic representation and a colorful work. Calligraphy is rarely combined with oil painting, showing the two branches of art. Socially, the art directions can be based on the structure of a class system. Monochrome painting with brush and ink is often attributed to a learned social class in Korean art. Monochrome paintings are seen as an artistic reference to the teachings of Confucius. Learned artists can discern a colorfulness between the gradations of black inks. The color gradations are not based on the perception of the eye, but on an emotional recognition. This theory perceives a loss of subtlety in the actual use of color and a limitation of the viewer's individual imagination. Ancient folk painting serves decorative purposes and is a reflection of various beliefs.
Korean folk art is an antithesis to ink drawing. Colorful works are decorated with ritual reference or funerary art. Each art style is subject to the influences of foreign cultures. Colorful everyday art was first infused with the Buddhist use of rich thalo and primary colors. Early imprints can be traced back to India. This raises expectations of a Buddhist orientation, which can be found in statues, depictions of monks, and the tranquil atmosphere of mountain landscapes. Complementing the colors, Korean works represent a deep symbolic language. The tiger is the most significant symbol in folk painting. Tigers are often depicted as lovable and somewhat simple-minded. The notion of the ferocious predator is not supported by art. Dragons and mountain spirits are among the symbols that spring from the country's legends. Bamboo, pine, crane, sun and the mountain landscapes are a sign of longevity. Confucian painting focuses on social values. Loyalty, reverence and a high level of achievement are considered to be the highest good in the interaction. Career and success are symbolized by a carp that turns into a dragon.
